TMS
I’ve had some TMS work done on me, for experiments and not treatment, but it is a way to activate parts of your brain with a magnet, so you can jump start neuron pathways and this can lead to you establishing and strengthening those pathways which can literally change your mind, your outlook, and as a result your life. You sit somewhere for 30 minutes once every week or few days for a few months and then it’s like you’re much better. Keep in mind though that. you need those supplements too, everyone does.

"TMS is a noninvasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate specific parts of the brain. Although it’s typically used to treat depression, research suggests it may be an effective treatment for bipolar disorder, too.’

“Many patients with bipolar disorder (BD) fail to experience benefit following traditional pharmacotherapy” - “Transcranial magnetic stimulation is a promising approach for treating patients with BD who have failed to respond to pharmacological or psychosocial treatment.”

“data on the safety and efficacy of TMS in bipolar disorder are preliminary but intriguing.”
This article is from 11 years ago and we’ve learned a lot since then.

There are the compounds harmine and harmaline that can help some of things, thing can for sure interfere with some medicine and you must discuss this with a doctor before taking any

"Scientific studies conducted and verified many of the traditional uses including anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-parasitic and anti-cancer effects. "

“Some evidence indicates that social stress, changes in growth factors (e.g., brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)), and neuroinflammation are involved in the development and progression of the disease. The monoamine oxidase A inhibitor drug harmine was suggested to have both antidepressant and anti-inflammatory properties and may, therefore, be a potential candidate for treatment of depression.”
DHF
and lastly in things to eat is this naturally occurring compound in some foods that is isolated and concentrated for a more effective dose. I have experienced a large mental benefit from taking this, and I highly recommend it if the doctor says it is okay

“7,8-Dihydroxyflavone (7,8-DHF) is a kind of natural flavonoid with the potential to cross the blood-brain barrier. 7,8-DHF effectively mimics the effect of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)” {BDNF is what causes your brain to grow and heal, taking this supplement can allow your brain to physically heal when it otherwise is not}

“his review focuses on the recent experimental studies on depression, neurodegenerative diseases, and learning and memory functions”

" Collectively, it is likely that SFN would be potential therapeutic compound for neurodevelopmental disorders."

“BD is becoming increasingly understood as a condition of aberrant neuroplasticity. Multiple factors, such as OS, imbalance of neurotransmitters, and genetics, are associated with the pathophysiology of BD.”

“which have previously been shown to be required for emotional learning, were activated by systemic 7,8-DHF”
